Clean up day!

The sun came out first thing this morning but it was still a bit cool. At least it was not raining.... We decided to go into clean up mode with the sun. I started by sweeping up the leaves outside on our patio, it was hard, there had to be 60 or 70 of them.... took me at least 3 or 4 minutes, could hardly handle the pace... Judy was on clean up inside, and laundry, (dirty job, someone has to do it!). After I got rid of the leaves I got my trusty bottle of windex out and started into cleaning the exterior of the RV. It was dirty. The wind was blowing while it rained and that means dirt all over everthing down here... Got it all cleaned up by lunch time. Come on... look.... you can almost see the beads of sweat on my forehead...


We went for a ride after lunch on the motorcycles. I heard about another mountain trail to climb, however we had problems finding it. It was out on the Yuma Proving Grounds, and they got washed out in the rain. They have a huge chain link fence around part of thier property, and it was wased out to the point of lying on the ground. Never did find the trail I was looking for... all of a sudden it got ugly in the sky again so we headed back into Yuma. Picked up a "take and bake" pizza for dinner. After dinner we watched quite a bit of the Haiti special. It was good, lots of good artists.... read on the Hughes Net Home page, they found a 22 year old guy today in the rubble, who is still alive....after 10 days burried.... wow.....
Chris and Kristina picked up thier new dog this afternoon. It is a rescue dog call Cali, or Kali, we are not sure yet. She looks like a very nice dog, and has made herself at home. Only thing is, I do not think she has met Balzack or Graham yet..... a little bit of spice to life....
Looks like she know how to play tennis... (no, I did not fly up to Woodstock to take these pictures, I borrowed them off of Kristina's blog....)



Here is a shot of the new pack leader Kristina and Cali...



Good luck with the cat introductions!

Tomorrow is supposed to be back to our normal beautiful weather... lets hope so! We have a Company coming in tomorrow morning to replace our slideout toppers. Lot of people may not know what they are.... they are a type of canopy that cover the top of the two slideouts on the RV. They keep rain and debris off the top of the slideouts. I will take some pictures tomorrow to show you. Our became brittle and ripped, after 5 years of being exposed to the sun, this is about normal. It is a lot cheaper to get the work done down here, that is for sure... :-))

Till tomorrow
